GE2015: SDP policies will set S'pore on the road to Greece, says Vivian Balakrishnan
[SINGAPORE] Holland-Bukit Timah GRC incumbent Vivian Balakrishnan has launched the first salvo against the Singapore Democratic Party, saying that its policies would set Singapore "on the road to Greece".
Speaking at a press conference on Tuesday afternoon, Dr Balakrishnan said his team will show, over the next nine days, that the SDP has copied policy prescriptions that have already failed elsewhere. His PAP team will face off against a SDP team led by party chief Chee Soon Juan at the polls.
